I have the heart of an artist and the eye of a photographer

Hi. My name is Jacki but you can call me Jax. I'm a wedding and portrait photographer who loves to teach, travel, salute the sun and swim in the sea. You'll find my home next door to a forest near the beach just north of Durban, South Africa.

Being creative is as important to me as breathing and I would love to share this with you!

If you’re far away from this neck of the woods– we can easily meet on Skype or I can jump on a plane.

“We love her creativity, the element of cheekiness but above everything else the way that she manages to capture the emotions of the day. We have already worked with Jax in two different countries and it was such a pleasure”

My style is a mixture of creative portraiture and documentary photography with an emphasis on narrative, emotive story telling.

Whether photographing someone's wedding, a couple in love, a portrait of a talented female artist, a famous musician or a man and his best friend, my Fine Art Degree has hugely influenced my approach as a photographer.

I’m fascinated by human stories and strive to craft personalised, emotive imagery about YOU and the moments you cherish. I offer a bespoke service so if you’re interested in commissioning me, I would love to get to know you and your story so that we can work collaboratively to develop something special to hang on your walls that will transcend time. Life goes by so quickly and the magic of photography is that we can preserve those special moments for eternity. Let’s create something beautiful together that you will treasure always.
